Nigel & Debbie's Podcast

Pastor Nigel teaches that prayer is not a ritual or a list of requests, but a living relationship with God as Father. True prayer isn't about impressing God or changing His mind, it's about being with Him, letting Him change your heart, and aligning your life with His will. When prayer becomes a continual, honest conversation rooted in identity and trust, it brings freedom, faith, and deeper intimacy with God.

Waiting tests more than our endurance—it reveals what we are truly seeking. It is one of the hardest invitations of faith, not because nothing is happening, but because everything is. In Scripture, impatience rushes ahead of God and leaves wreckage behind. Patience, however, forms something eternal. Waiting isn't passive. It is a dying to self—a refusal to act apart from God, a choice to remain when outcomes are delayed and answers are silent. The greatest gift of waiting isn't the promise fulfilled, but the encounter along the way. In this message, we explore how waiting becomes a place of death, encounter, and resurrection—where faith shifts from outcome-driven to God-centered, and who we become matters more than how fast we arrive.

In this powerful message, Pastor Bill Bennot unpacks the life-changing difference between “Christ in you” and “you in Christ.” Moving beyond part-time faith, he calls believers into a full-time, Spirit-empowered life rooted in grace, not performance. Through Scripture and personal stories, this episode invites you to stop compartmentalising your faith and start living fully aware of who you are in Christ, every moment, every place.

As a new year begins, this message calls us to stop before we plan and ask a deeper question: what are we really building on? Drawing from Jesus' teaching about the wise and foolish builders, it challenges us to see God's Word not as a helpful addition to life, but as its true foundation. The sermon gently but powerfully reminds us that our real values are revealed not by what we say, but by how we live — and that only a life built on what is truly valuable will stand when storms come. A grounding, timely word for anyone who wants to start the year wisely.

Listen to our guest speaker Clarinda, share a beautiful message on being one with Christ, seated in heavenly places and the revelation of who we are in Him.

This is part II of our Union with Christ series where we explore the daily choices every believer faces-will we live in absolute reliance on God's Spirit or will we take matters into our own hands?

In this message Nigel explores the daily choice every believer faces—will we live in absolute reliance on God's Spirit, or will we take matters into our own hands? Every day, you face a choice: trust God's Spirit completely—or take control yourself. Which will you live by? The answer shapes everything

We've all felt the tremble, right? In this episode, we dive deep into the spiritual urgency of the hour and the simple but profound question, “What's in your hand?”  Many of us are living our lives, minding our own business, while the Spirit is tugging at us to turn aside and pay attention. God is ready to use what He has placed in your hand, but will you recognise it and stop living as if you're unequipped? This message is a wake-up call to believers who feel stuck, weary, or unqualified. It's time to leave the desert of survival-mode, self reliant Christianity. This is about surrender, about walking with God not just working for Him. The Holy Spirit is not just an idea—He is power, and yet we often live as if we're empty-handed. Are you living like you believe what you say you believe? The question isn't whether you're enough, the question is; will you walk with the One who is? Wake up. Lock in. Leave the desert behind. What's in your hand?

Are You Expecting a Miracle? In today's episode, Pastor Debbie challenges us with a powerful question: Do you expect miracles? If you want to see miracles, you've got to walk with the Miracle Worker Himself. Pastor Debbie unpacks that miracles aren't random—they're relational. They flow from deep connection with the God, fuelled by love, and activated through bold faith. Have we become so familiar with the word of God that we've stopped believing for miracles? The reason the Bible is constantly telling us to remember, is because if you're remembering you're expecting. This episode calls us to stir our expectation, renew our faith, and position ourselves for the supernatural. Because when we walk with God,  miracles are not only possible—they're inevitable.

Pastor Nigel encourages us on how to rightly interpret the times we're living through. 

If you want to walk in miracles, you must walk with the Miracle Worker. In this powerful continuation of our series, we explore the unchanging invitation from Jesus: “Walk with Me.” From the Garden with Adam, to the wilderness with Moses, to the shores of Galilee with the disciples, God's call has always been relational, not transactional. Miracles aren't magical—they're about relationship. In this episode, we'll dive deep into the truth that walking in the supernatural flows from walking in step with Jesus. The closer we walk with Him, the more we align with His heart, His will, and His power. Get ready to be challenged, encouraged, and reminded that the mandate hasn't changed—miracles follow those who follow Him. Are you walking close enough to hear Him say, “Walk with Me”?

Have we settled for a version of faith that talks a lot but moves little. In this episode, we confront the disconnect between words and power in modern Christianity—and call you back to expect the miraculous. Miracles are deeply relational, personal expressions of God's love and presence. They are His fingerprints left on our lives.   We explore how signs and wonders are not the exception, but the norm in a life deeply connected to Jesus. If our theology doesn't shape how we live and love, it's time for a reset. It's not about hype—it's about relationship. Join us as we unpack why expecting miracles isn't radical... it's just real Christianity.

We weren't created to live self-sufficient lives, we were designed for deep union with God. But too often, we ask Him to bless our agenda, reducing our faith to what's in our wallet or bank account. We forget to live from His presence and plan and that in this we have access to His limitless supply. God doesn't just give us things; He shares Himself with us.  This requires a shift in our trust. Worship is our posture of trust. Finances are a place in our lives where we either worship or fail to worship. In this message, Pastor Debbie challenges us to shift our mindset from survival to supernatural living, to stop looking at our wallets and start looking at Him—our eternal, inexhaustible Source.

"If the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few, perhaps it's time to stop merely praying for the harvest and start praying for the courage to step forward and become the workers we are called to be."

In this episode, Pastor Nigel speaks into the generational shift happening right now and the invitation from heaven to partner in bringing transformation to the earth. To walk in this calling, we must rise above fear and gain heaven's perspective. Drawing from Romans 12:1, Pastor Nigel unpacks the deep connection between worship and sacrifice—reminding us that true worship isn't about what we receive, but about what we bring. Worship demands faith, and faith calls us to trust. If you've felt the stirring to live differently in this season, this message will challenge and inspire you to come up higher.

In this episode, Pastor Nigel shares a prophetic dream that speaks directly to the season we're living through. He unpacks how our perspective shapes our journey—and what posture we must take to navigate the days ahead. Tune in for revelation, direction, and a timely word for this moment.

How do we healthily respond to the call of God on our life? How do we root ourselves to allow the gifts on our lives to flow from a place of relationship not performance and enrich the communities around us?

"Living the 'One Anothers' in the 21st Century." By Pastor Costa Mitchell

In this episode, we explore the power of the stories we tell ourselves and how they shape our lives. Are you living according to narratives crafted by others, or are you listening for God's story through His Word and His voice? Join us as we dive into the importance of aligning your story with God's promises and discovering His truth over the lies the world may offer. Don't let yourself get caught in stories that don't reflect God's plan for your life!

How much stillness do you have in your life? This episode highlights the transformative power of stillness, showing how it creates space for the Holy Spirit and allows us to experience the life God promises. By making room for Him, we surrender more of ourselves and invite His presence. Stillness exposes the idols and distractions we often rely on, and by embracing rest, we respond to God's call to "Be still and know I am God." At its core, rest is an act of worship, reminding us that true peace and fulfilment come through surrendering to God.

How do we remain in hope with a heart that feels sick? In moments of deep pain and confusion, it's easy to feel abandoned by God, questioning why things happen and wondering if we've done something wrong. Pastor Jess shares a personal message on wrestling with God. How do we lean into the wrestle, trusting that He is both the God of tomorrow's promises and the God who weeps with us in our brokenness?

Mike shares a message on giving, generosity, tithing and living a life of trust and abundance. 

We had the immense privilege of hosting Jeremy Hilliard, a pastor from Bethel Church in California encouraging us with a word on shifting from a performance mentality and stepping into rest and relationship.

Pastor Nigel expands on our January theme "a season of promises fulfilled" by highlighting tools we need to enter in.

Pastor Jess preaches on living life in faith and proximity to Jesus, without limiting God to the level of your understanding

As we enter a new season we hear, “Be bold and courageous…the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” (Josh 1:9) Stepping over any threshold requires faith and the source of our faith is this “I will be with you”.  Fear is merely faith in a different word.

In this New Year's message, Pastor Nigel shares a message on upgrading our levels of Hope. God is working with his bride to release his purposes into the earth, in order to carry and release the supernatural we need to have high levels of supernatural hope

The unseen does not mean the "unreal". Though the future is unseen by us, it is not unseen by God. We have to take every thought captive, bring them into alignment and confess with our mouths the promises of what is yet unseen. 

We live in pictures. Humans think in pictures and talk in words. Pictures inspired by our imagination are powerful tools that your brain is using all the time. 2 Cor 4:18 tells us to fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. To see the unseen, you need to use your imagination. You can't have faith without activating your imagination - letting God's Word seed thought pictures in your head.

Worship is so much more than just a moment or a song. Worship is laying everything you have and everything you are down, a sacrifice and a lifestyle.  Our incredible worship leader Tehila shares a beautiful message on coming back to the heart of worship. 

Your behaviour, what you spend your time doing, will show you what you truly value. If you want to change your behaviour, more important than trying harder to change, you need to pay attention to your values. What you value will direct your life.

Do we have any idea of the privilege it is to stand in the manifested presence of God? Do we take it lightly or do we give Him the reverence He is due? 

If your life is a story, what are the people around you reading? We had the immense privilege of having Pastor Doug with us all the way from Richmond Virgina this Sunday, sharing on how to let your life tell a powerful story. 

Our modern world rewards self reliance, but in limiting our lives to only what can be done on our own, how much of the abundant, limitless life God has for us is lost Pastor Debbie preaches on stepping out of the boat beyond human capability to allow God to fill your life with His.

The people of God are supposed to be marked by the presence of God. In a marriage there isn't a mine and yours but an ours. When we entered into covenant with God we are supposed to be living on His account, living from and bringing the abundance of Heaven to Earth.

There is a cry for justice happening all around us, but the importance of how we achieve it and how we perceive it cannot be overstated.

Desert seasons are a given in life, in fact most people used greatly by God spent time in a desert. How we journey through these seasons determines much of where we will end up.

Do we live like heaven is a real place? Do we live like the Spiritual realm exists around us? It's time to start living like we believe what we teach.

This Father's Day's message celebrates the Power that a good father makes.

When asked what you can do to promote world peace, Mother Teresa said, “Go home and love your family.” Healthy families are paramount to the foundation of society, the enemy knows that if he goes after the family he can attack the building blocks of the world. What can we do to not only protect our families going forward, but heal from wounds in our past?

The gospel of the Kingdom has always had the power to transform nations. In this message Pastor Nigel shares about the adventure and the joy of sharing our faith with others.

Do find yourself constantly defending yourself to the accusations inside of your own head? Living inside of a courtroom in your head means you are living in shame, shame hides us from relationship with God which will lead to repentance and freedom.  Pastor Debbie leads us on a powerful message of repentance, wholeness and freedom.

With so many pivotal moments happening in nations across the globe, Ps Nigel goes back to the 10 commandments an original blueprint for setting up free, Godly and successful nations.

With so many pivotal moments happening this year in nations across the globe, Ps Nigel goes back to the 10 commandments an original blueprint for setting up free, Godly and successful nations.

Without hope there can be no future. Where are your feet planted, how do you see the land that is before you and how much of that place is within your personal power and responsibility to change. 

Our great commission is to make disciples of all nations, not just in all nations. What does it look like to bring the Gospel to impact, reform and revive the nations of the world?

Recently, Pastor Nigel had the privilege of speaking at the Transform Africa Conference where he spoke powerfully on the critical part art plays in bringing understanding and meaning to life.

This Sunday, Pastor Nigel spoke about what it takes to disciple nations. If we as the church believe that we are supposed to be light to the world and that the world is getting dark... it's not the world's problem.
